New Additions to the Study Guide
Virus
What is a good medium for growing viruses?
List and describe the basic process HIV uses to infect a host?
It is also important to understand what steps occur for virus to enter a living.
Bacteria
Gram Staining - See Previous Post for info
Identify the three primary shapes of bacteria
What makes Archaebacteria uniques?
List the three classification Domains and describe the cell types that belong to each.
Make sure to review parts of a bacteria - See Previous Post for info
What were the first photosynthetic bacteria, and how were they important in the transformation of the earths atmosphere?

Bacterial Cell Parts and Gram Staining
Prokaryotic Cell Parts
http://kconline.kaskaskia.edu/bcambron/Biology%20117/Cells.htm
Review difference between Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic Cells
Scroll down to image of typical prokaryotic cell - Know the parts
Gram Staining
https://wikispaces.psu.edu/display/Bio110nk/Prokaryotes+II+-+Structure+and+Function
Scroll down to The Prokaryotic Cell Wall and Peptidoglycan section
Click on Gram Staining Image - Study location and color of staining
Blue = Violet/Purple
Red = Pinks
**There is also some endospore info near the end

Virus Model Last Minute - Due Wednesday
Change of Plans - I will give you another day - Due Wednesday
Bring Tuesday if you want me to review
***REMEBER THIS IS PART OF YOUR MIDTERM GRADE***
Here are some links to help with last minute-
Molecular Expressions: http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/cells/virus.html

Rubric For Model
/4 Capsid Proteins (should show names if applicable and repeating subunits)
/4 Non-capsid proteins (where are they found? What do they do? Names?)
/4 nucleic acid (DNA or RNA? Single stranded or double stranded? +/-)
/4 Labels Model should be labeled
/3 envelope (or spikes, or other outer covering)
/3 misc. (varies depending on virus chosen)
/2 sturdiness & aesthetic appeal
Extra Credit if your model is linked to a specific Disease

HIV Simulation and Info
In Class:
Lab on HIV Transmission
Videos on HIV Replication and HIV Resistance to drugs
Evodots and Replication of HIV
If Absent:
Talk to Classmates about acitivities
HW:
Finish HIV Lab Questions - Skip 13, 14, and 15
Finish any Packets
Next Time:
Begin Prokaryotic Cells - bacteria
Note: - Molecular Genetics Acivities - Viruses Packet
# 12 - diptheria, botulism, and scarlet fever
# 13 - induce the host bacteria to make toxins
# 14 - Viral DNA that inserts into the host DNA
# 18 - Remember proviral genes are DNA from the virus in the host cells DNA
# 20 - release hydrolytic enzymes that damage or kill cells, produce toxins that lead to disease symptoms, produce protein envelopes or other components that are toxic
# 22 - Retrovirus/HTLV = leukemia
Herpes Virus/Epstein Barr = Burkitt's Lymphoma
Papovavirus/Papilloma = cervical cancer
Hepatitis B Virus = liver cancer
